partially solved

if anybody else needs this - only seems to work with

PhotonNetwork.player.TagObject

Instantiate

GameObject pl = PhotonNetwork.Instantiate (playerprefab.name, spawnPt.position,spawnPt.rotation, 0) as GameObject;  
		pl.GetComponent().owner.TagObject = pl;

to get the game object of the owner

PhotonPlayer p = photonView.owner;  
GameObject pp = p.TagObject as GameObject;

even when p does not return null, owner.tagObject returns null every time

Any ideas why tagObject doesn't work like this?

i misunderstood how tag object works,
make sure you set owner.tagobject from void Start() on a script on the photon view and not during PhotonNetwork.Instantiate

this works:)
