Laporte was called for the 1987 Rugby World Cup, where France was runners-up to New Zealand. He missed the final, but still played three games, scoring two tries, 11 conversions, three penalties and one drop goal, 42 points in aggregate, thus making him the top scorer for France in the competition. His last game was the 31–16 win over Fiji, at 7 June 1987, in Auckland, for the quarter-finals, where he scored three conversions, two penalties and one drop goal, an aggregate of 15 points.
